Solid pre-sale for weekend. Should target 40-45M Friday perhaps and 225-250M 2nd weekday may be.

Yes. May cross 900M by Monday if all goes very well. Though I wont be disappointed if its just over 825.

Correct me if im wrong. But it looks like KongZilla could be up 150% on friday presales compared to thurday. 
Thats is not very commen in China. Should be in for a great weekend and bring 175-200 mill $ total in to play

[fmpro]

Around 30 mill Thursday. A very good drop from wed

Saturday - Monday are Holidays but yeah Friday pre-sales are more than I expected. I was thinking a flat Friday instead of Drop like Kong Skull Island, but now thinking 45M atleast.

 

Taopiaopiao has 6M pre-sales for Friday

 

That normally would mean 60M plus 2nd Friday, but I am being conservative.

 

45

100

105

70

 

4 days weekend expecting.

Yeah. Lets keep it conservative. But those numbers really seems like the floor IMO

9M at 10:00 on Maoyan. 10.7M on Taopiao. Shouldn't have issue crossing 50. Optimistically 60 is very likely.

 

Pre-sales for tomorrow are awesome. Can be 10M by the end of day.

Is the target now to beat Skull Island in terms of LCY?

Yes it can. Though will depend on how legs are after holidays. Kong Skull run was cut short after 3rd week by FF8 but this can continue due to lack of competition like KoTM.

I wasn't checking hourly rate. The film has been backloaded in weekdays so can do more but seems hard to do more than 2.5x 14:00.

Depends though, cause New local film - Sister only begin screening from 6pm onwards so will need to see whether with another big film in the market, whether GvK will move fast like previous days.

 

(not forgetting piracy is literally everywhere, I randomly search Baidu and weibo and..... I do not like what I am seeing)

[efialtes76]

27.5 mill(+76%) at 6pm.

[charlie Jatinder]

Pace goooood now. 45-50 should happen.

 

Pre-sales for tomorrow already 9M on Taopiao and 7.5M on Maoyan.

 

Final PS may be 12M+.
